Guest Ed Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 To be down just 1-0 after that 1st half is a very good thing. Some changes now and WE STORM BACK TO VICTORY! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Bob Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Hey, everyone, remember how we were losing 1-0 at the half against Guadeloupe, looked totally useless, then wound up winning 2-1? Eh? Ehhhhh? I'm... having the time of my life... and I've never felt this way before... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TripleA Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I say we go with the kamikaze 1-6-3 and score two quick ones then move to 8-2-0. Why not at this point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canucker Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Lucky to only be down 1-0, I guess but it just sucks to be losing on such a horrid, horrid goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admin Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I can't wait for 8 years from now when the Whitecaps have had players in their academy for 8 years since the age of 12 and can play on this team. + Toronto + Montreal + Milltown! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Bob Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I can't wait for 8 years from now when Roger Thompson will be toasting my sub at Quizno's and I tell him how much he sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Ed Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I'm really surprised at Levesque as he has been starting for Cottbus' reserves in the Regional League. I hope he is just having a bad tourney as I can't imagine he would have lasted this long with Cottbus if he didn't have some potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free kick Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 We knew going in that that the possession arrow was going to be tilted the other way but there were a couple of times when we just plainly gave it away too cheaply and too lazily. Playing back and defending with 10 men is one thing but you don't have to give it away that easily make them work to get get it. Too bad about the goal because, even though they dominated possession, the quality of their chances were not that great, our back four was fantastic. #2 (Grant) played very well.

Gian-Luca Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 When the goal went in I was thinking it might have been the best thing for us, as it might force to actually play. We've never been dominated like this by past Mexican U20 teams - we usually outplayed them in fact. I don't know if this is the greatest Mexican U20 team of all time or we've gotten that much worse (even though we have more pro players at this age level - granted, half of them aren't at the tourney) or we just have the wrong mentality with this coach. Sub on some attacking players in the 2nd half and ATTACK!!!! No point in sitting back and defending a 1-0 deficit in an elimination game. And someone tell the twit Brit tit calling the game that Teibert doesn't have an "L" in his last name! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ed Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I can't wait for 8 years when Lord Bob gets spit as a condiment in his sub. I think Thompson would a little less subtle and be over the counter in that situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see the potential..... i dont think he is a bad keeper compared to some that we had in past (remember the guy in 2001 who couldn't kick the ball).

Lord Bob Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 I think Thompson would a little less subtle and be over the counter in that situation. I'm sure Thompson would be appropriately intimidated by the fat, smart-mouthed guy who, at that point, would be in his mid-thirties. And since I was at Quizno's, presumably hungry.

Aird25 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Our distribution from the outside backs is terrible. But that could be the result of not having anyone playing in front of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superbrad Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Two steps forward, three back. Reminds me of the last Women's coach (Pelerud) who took a talented bunch of players and made them into defensive robots. You saw how that turned out.... Why do these damn coaches always go back to this style. Someone said losing 6 - 0 would be better.... I AGREE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
